It’s always been a struggle how to keep food fresh. Until recently, the Individual Quick Frozen (IQF) technique revolutionized the processed food industry and changed how manufacturers purchased and utilized fruits and vegetables to make the final product. The technology includes freezing fresh fruits and vegetables at a very low temperature. This technique is ideal for preserving seasonal fruits and vegetables along with their nutritional value.
Why is it considered the New Fresh?
IQF enables higher nutrient retention as fast freezing preserves the vitamins and minerals found in the produce. Also, the quick-freezing process reduces the risk of contamination and spoilage. It eliminates the need for preservatives, which can be harmful to human health.
One of the biggest advantages of IQF technology is that it allows for better portion control and reduces the risk of waste because individual pieces of food can be stored and used as needed. By freezing them individually, only the required amount can be used, reducing the need to discard unused portions.
With the increasing demand of food manufacturers for making seasonal fruits & vegetables products, IQF technology can be particularly beneficial for perishable items that have a limited shelf life. It also gives you the benefit of better storage, since IQF products can be preserved for a longer period without losing quality, flavor, color, freshness, and nutritional value.
IQF products are convenient to use as they are packed in pouches and have easy access to only use the amount needed. IQF food requires very little preparation time since it’s individually quick frozen, which allows you to save time in the kitchen. It’s easily accessible and can be cooked straight from the freezer without thawing, making them more conducive for consumers.
Overall, IQF is an innovative and efficient way to freeze food while maintaining its quality and taste without compromising its quality.
